NoLed

That file is found in data/app. You would need to be rooted and use a file manager like the paid version on Root Explorer. I think Astro File Explorer can be used also.:)
[Android Apps and Games] fchipm:
When using in combination with Widgetlocker sometimes NoLed will interrupt what I'm doing if I receive a notification while the screen is on.

I think I've pinpointed it to unlocking the screen with any other slider besides the unlock slider.

Is this a known issue and is there a way around it? Sort of makes other unlock sliders useless.
[Android Apps and Games] jackes96:
I love this app, thank you. Added to my SGS (:

No other ideas but I use WL too and have the same problem
[Android Apps and Games] D@niel0s:
I've got one problem in the latest version of the app. If I enable sleep, it does work, but then it does NOT want to wake up... It just doesn't work and I have to turn it on manually.

OFF Time: 12:00 PM

ON Time: 6:00 AM

Can anyone help me solve this problem?

Battery Level & Other Suffs

Hi all.

I have a i9000B with JPD and supercurio patched kernel adapted to i9000B.

Status:

- I am now seeing 85% of battery level, and its charging. But if I unlock it, Battery level at status bar (another app installed) says 96%, just like the information under settings. Both USB and wall charging produce the same behavior.

- From time to time, it goes off, without sleep configured. I need to configure at Tasker to wake NoLED each 15 minutes.

- Sleep does not work at all. I dont use AM/PM, and the times there look strage "9:1" for "09:01". Dont know if "9:1" is misinterpreted by the code.

- Suggestion for PT-BR: at apps listing, its called "configurações de NoLED". Its too huge. Can be called just "NoLED", because everytime I try to find it at letter "L", and its under letter "C". "NoLED Config" is ok too.

Best,

Marco

The fix for this was to instead of using the "Emails" tickbox to monitor the gmail account instead monitor the gmail application. Then only priority items are notified for (as long as that matches your gmail settings).
[Android Apps and Games] mystifiyer:
If its of any condolences, I am having the same issue as you. Author had advised me to set the notification delay but it still doesnt work for me.

Until he can reproduce the problem on his end, we are stuck for now. On a good note, normal notification still works for missed calls.
[Android Apps and Games] kally:
hey madmack,

can you please add the feature to deactivate the automatic dismiss of the notifications by pressing the back- or homekey, because sometimes I accidently hit these buttons and even don't see that there are new notifications.

thanks in advance.

kally
[Android Apps and Games] sophistical:
If you go to the NoLED settings under Miscellaneous you can choose which buttons dismiss notifications. You can disable (uncheck) back and home but then you'll have to use the power button which is listed as being laggy but I guess you can try it.
[Android Apps and Games] the-bink:
Been using this app for sometime now. GREAT app, big thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
All right guys. been out of town for a while hence my late reply, lets see..

webpage has info on where to find each feature. check out 2nd post.

thanks for the detailed bug report. Did you try the latest beta on the OP ? I think I know why this problem occurs on some devices, this latest beta might have the solution. let me know.

Other sliders ? :confused: I thought once you had WidgetLocker, you don't have any other slider. hmm.. This is easy to fix, i'll make sure its done in the next iteration. Let me know what scenarios or how you actually do unlock the device with something other than WL if you have WL installed and running ?

edit: just patched it.

I'll double check it and see that it works.

Marco, you can add yourself as a portuguese translator in our new crowdin.net project website and change that string yourself :) just search for noled on that website. Its pretty easy and user-friendly for translators.

I'm having a check on the sleep option, i think the error is caused by the same error that happens when setting a ringtone for Audio Reminder.

about NoLED going off, thats most likely a bad setting parameter that you have somewhere. Either you've set it to sleep, or a task manager is sitting there somewhere deliberately shutting down the background service. I can't replicate this issue on my device so it has to be something on your end. that could also explain why the charging indicator is not getting updated anymore (if NoLED gets restarted in the background due to a task killer, it loses track of the charging status).

for sleep, 9:1 is actually 09:01. its just a bad string representation for the time. I'll make sure I get that fixed in the next version.
[Android Apps and Games] sophistical:
I'll test this once it's updated. The scenerio in my case is I unlock the phone using the WL screen. It has a slider option but I can also put app shortcuts on the WL unlock screen so most commonly I'm in a chat app (Kik or Talk) that I opened from a single press on the WL unlock screen. As a new chat comes in the screen goes to the NoLED notification immediately even though I was typing at the time (the screen didn't time out.) I think it happens even if I had unlocked the phone using the WL slider and then opened my chat app.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
got it.

i'll make sure this is taken care of in the next version.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
new beta is out. It should take care of most of these problems mentioned in the last couple of pages.

I also added the ability to trace the last 10 notifications in your status bar to help you with selecting apps in Monitored Apps. :cool:
[Android Apps and Games] lpasq:
Yes, very cool! Current market version flawless on Nexus S CM7-22. Big thanks!!

...sent from NxS
[Android Apps and Games] sophistical:
The new beta (4.2.1b) seems to have fixed my issue where a new message would disable an active screen and show a NoLED notification.
[Android Apps and Games] nicoloco:
so 88% of time more than average usage of the CPU ??

It sounds dodgy to me :)

I think it just mean that it has used 88% of the battery :D
[Android Apps and Games] ChaoticKinesis:
I don't get it, are you not familiar with the battery use screen? Go to settings > about phone > battery use and you see everything that's used the battery. The fact that those percentages do not add up to 100% is irrelevant. If the display is off, it does not consume power. Instead, it will be consumed by such things as cell standby, phone idle, android system, android os etc. If the display is on, those things will still consume power.

My point is that during the blinking period, 88% of the draw on the battery was from the display. Therefore, having a blinking notification caused the phone to consume 8x more power than it would have otherwise.

I'm curious why no one else has mentioned having such an issue. Is this just my phone?
[Android Apps and Games] gTen:
The default battery reader isn't very accurate >.>
[Android Apps and Games] Kodijack:
I really like this app and it's idea.

Though i'm not sure you're right with your info on the display not being completely on?

Nevertheless i have not found any discrepancies in batterylife, so i guess you're right :-)

But i'd like to see any settings for it. Color, position, what to notify and the like. If you find the time and the need....thanks :-)
[Android Apps and Games] TMW597:
I have both ringtone and vibration.
[Android Apps and Games] TMW597:
That's great for "your" priorities. That's why everyone is different. One could also say if you're getting email throughout the day what do you need the notification "dot" for? That means you're checking it all day anyway.

I merely brought up the status indicator because as it is now (especially with people using widgets to under clock their processor and having it crash the handset) people have no way of really knowing if the handset is really on. Once that screen is black (sleeping) you can only assume it's on minus hitting the home key every so often to check, which will turn on the entire screen and use up battery.

So again, just staying objective here. Everyone has a reason and a purpose.

Is it possible this program run only for an hour from missed event?!
[Android Apps and Games] ZeCoder:
Issues collected 2

These issues are collected from both international version and US versions of Galaxy S:

There is some issues mentioned above that need the developer attention. Some of these issues are collected here:

1- When you use Apps that will show pop-ups on the screen at some events (like Handscent SMS or Battery indicator ) the pop-up will show on the screen because the screen is already ON. So that will consume the battery and could burn out the screen.

And there is many Apps that use pop-ups. So I think we need a fix for that issue.

>> Confirmed on both international and US version

2- I also noticed that the screen receive touch input when there is pop-ups. So that could lead to other problems like un-intended user input. Because most pop-ups contain buttons.

>> Confirmed on international version

A solution for the issue 1 & 2 could be making the "NoLED" layer the higher layer (overlay) on the screen always, then it will cover any pop-up that could show on the screen. I don't know if this is possible, but I thought I should share the idea.

3- I haven't seen anyone else mention this but I'm having issues with NoLED consuming battery. I installed it on my Captivate this morning with a fresh charge and left it sitting idle for about 3 hours. When I checked back on it, I saw the notification blinking and found my battery depleted to 76%. When I checked use, it was over 90% display with time in use of 2.5 hours. Actual use by me was less than 5 minutes, so that was all from the notification. Checking JuicePlotter confirmed that the battery was used heavily for the latter 2.5 hours, immediately after I received an email.

Not sure if this is relevant, but I have lock enabled.

>> Confirmed on both international and US version

4- In the deep dark, I can see that all the screen is ON (very few light on all the surface, but light ...)

>> Confirmed on both international and US version

5 - The "NoLED" is not working all the time. The red notification is failing to appear on the screen sometimes while the process is still showed as running.

>> Confirmed on both international and US version

For me I have to kill the "NoLED" process manually and then lock the screen and unlock it so it will start to work normally again.

I really want this app to be improved. I think it is essential for most of Galaxy S proud owners in order to them becoming even prouder.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
am currently on a holiday and wont be able to do much improvements, but I'll definitely look into these things once am back. should be sometime in August.

thanks everybody for your feedback, I try to read as much as I can of this thread (sometimes hard to do given the internet access where am at) to keep myself up to date on the status of this little app.
[Android Apps and Games] SizAndals:
@madmack,

Great app solution to the no LED issue. Look forward to future updates and possible new indicators and icons. Dev on!

How do you uninstall this App on the Vibrant if you want to do that?
[Android Apps and Games] cody_04l:
I fixed the issue I was having by enabling the visible pattern. With the pattern visible the app works great. If I make the pattern invisible the issues come back.

Just wanted to update my post incase anyone has this issue.

No Led used 16s CPU time, so that's not the problem, but that screen with red dot seems to consume quite lot energy when activated and that consume rate is so hi that I don't believe that red dot could consume all that power...

so imho that black screen consumes energy even it's on black. :(
[Android Apps and Games] EarlZ:
I think its not about the RED color consuming too much power or the black still consumes power its about the device getting out of idle state.
[Android Apps and Games] teddyph33r:
but isn't that "getting out of idle state" show up in cpu usage? My cpu state was around 2-6% all the time...
[Android Apps and Games] ChaoticKinesis:
Thank you for confirming that this issue is not unique to my phone. The app is an awesome idea but I wonder if there is any way around this problem.
[Android Apps and Games] tiuk:
Any chance of displaying the icons in a widget divided into a grid)? I'd love to be able to have my phone docked, unlocked, but have like a 4x2 widget to display notification icons instead of squinting to see the status bar. alternatively, an option to only enable noled when usb is plugged would work too. Tasker integration would also be fantastic so I could do this myself.

Love the idea, btw.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
I think its beyond the scope of what this app is meant to do, and that your use-case is pretty rare as well so I'm staying away from implementing that. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] sophistical:
Last I looked NoLED was exposed to Tasker so you could turn it on and off yourself with a USB plugged in event.
[Android Apps and Games] tiuk:
Ah, guess I missed it. That'll work then, thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] aryndar:
Tried this.

Nope.

Using Handcent, leaving popups turned off because I need the message notification more ten

the coolness of having a popup.

Hope someone brilliant comes up with a fix, then this would be a phenomenal app!
[Android Apps and Games] aiirikx:
tried this but didnt like it as for me it drained my batt. so im using BLN, i find it much better :) noLED is also good if your on a stock SGS
[Android Apps and Games] RaymondPJR:
NoLED

Definitely not the experience of 99.9 percent of users. I've used it since almost the beginning on several differnt Roms with no battery drain issues. It's all about using the proper settings. Good luck to you, though!:)
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
did you try the latest beta ?
[Android Apps and Games] Spik3balloon:
Just a sidenote (also re my ealier post). I tried the 'Delay SMS notification' in the NoLED settings (4.1.20.2), and it seems like it works properly with the GO SMS toast popups. :)
[Android Apps and Games] supermanmos:
The newest update is pretty frickin' sweet! The Audio Reminder is now working great...most of the time. When I have my phone set on Proximity Sensor, Vibrate

does

work at the specified intervals but the Audio Reminder

does not

sound off at all. This is the same when I am charging the phone with Charging Indicator notification enabled. I get the Vibrate at the specified intervals but not the Audio Reminder. Other than that both the Audio Reminder and the Vibrate work like a charm. Also, I really like the new addition of the Log Monitored Apps feature. The only problem I am experiencing with it is if I have anything running, which happens to be the Battery Indicator version 4.0.1 app, whenever I get a notification the Monitored Apps Log is logging this app as a notification every few seconds. So I am now not using the Battery Indicator app because all ten of the Monitored Apps Notification history log shows nothing but the date, time, and Battery Indicator every few seconds for the 10 log entries. Haha

Using Samsung Galaxy S Mesmerize
[Android Apps and Games] Aleziss:
Half way there !

Hello madmack and thanks for the reply and followup !

The issue I reported about not being able to select the audio notification file seems to be fixed.

The only thing that does not seem to work is the frequency at which the audio notification should be heard.

It works when set a 10seconds. Every 10s I hear the notificaiton. It does not seem to work when set to 30s, 120s and 240s. I have not tried higher timings as the timing I aim for is 900s so I guess it will neither work.

So the audio notification seems to work fine but only under 10 seconds repeat.

NoLED version 4.2.2 on a Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate 3G+ v.2.2 (SGH-T959D)

Thanks again for the constant updates
[Android Apps and Games] geokilla:
Hey madmack, with the latest version NoLED requires Accessibility service otherwise it won't run. However in your FAQ you satate I can disable Accessibility if I wish. Is this a bug?
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
Are you using blink or proximity sensor ? the audio reminder timer restarts every time the screen goes off/on. Unfortunately this had to be done otherwise you won't get any audio at all when the screen is off due to the way the mediaplayer API works in Android.

No, you don't need Accessibility. Its probably prompting you to activate accessibility every time you get into the settings menu because you have something checked in Monitored Apps. So uncheck all apps there (or select Deselect All) and that prompt won't appear anymore.

You can optionally just dismiss that prompt. NoLED will continue to function and you won't go to the accessibility menu.
[Android Apps and Games] midopama:
I have following problem with my Samsung Galaxy S:

If I start the galaxy, also NoLed starts.

I will get an notification for missed calls and SMS, but NO notification for K9 mail !

In this way, I have to switch off and on the NoLed, than I will get also an notification for K9 mail, until I restart my Galaxy.

I did try all possible settings, but no solution.

Same with 4.1.15.

Somebody an idea ?
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
make sure you have your k9 emails checked under Toggle > Emails.
[Android Apps and Games] midopama:
Yes, I have !

After switching off/on the NoLed, I get notification.
[Android Apps and Games] Mateus:
well... 3 days ive got a restarting device :( uninstalled NoLED and restarting is gone... Samsung Galaxy S, SpeedFix 500hz kernel, Darky ROM. Is there some solution or it is not known bug?
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
I might not be understanding the problem exactly. wouldn't that just "fix" your problem then ? I can't replicate that issue here. K9 works just fine.

restarting !! :eek:

nah, that's definitely not something related to NoLED per se. I don't have that issue and no one complained about that so far. It could be an issue with your rom/kernel combo though.
[Android Apps and Games] midopama:
Ok, again:

If I start the Galaxy, NoLed also starts. If I have an missed call or SMS, I get an notification from NoLed. But If I have an missed K9-email, I will get NO notification from NoLed.

In this case, I have to switch off/on the NoLed widget button. Aftert that, I will get also the K9 email Notification. But only until I restart the Galaxy. Than I must switch off/on Noled again, that I will get also the k9 email notification.
[Android Apps and Games] DarrenCarnall:
hmmm... weird problem just started happening for me.

I had the custom 'monitored apps' feature working perfectly, then for some reason (and i can't remember if anything changed on my phone) it stopped, just giving me the coloured dots.

i went through the monitored apps and restored them all to the standard icons, and that worked just fine... but then when i tried to select a new custom icon for, say, emails.. once I'd gone through the gallery and picked the icon it would boot me out of the noLED settings (previously it would take me back to the monitored apps list). and the custom icon would NOT be selected.

weird......

i'm trying to uninstall and reinstall at the moment. i'll let you know if it makes any difference. :)

EDIT: ok that didn't make any difference, but I did see one other weird problem that I forgot to mention before.

When I go into monitored apps and long press and choose 'choose custom icon' - the screen goes back to the monitored apps list, not the gallery... but it shows the pop up near the bottom saying "please choose icon" as though the gallery WAS open. This is where it gets really weird. If i rotate the phone to let the auto-rotate kick in... the gallery appears!!

I have literally no idea why any of this is happening. Anybody got any clues? it doesn't seem to matter how many times i uninstall or reboot etc

thanks all :)
[Android Apps and Games] Mateus:
Well... mabey i need to try reinstall ROM, then make all lagfixes and after all that wipe all data and install all again from scrach.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
don't auto-rotate the device ! that kills the preference menu and could explain why your custom images aren't getting set properly. its a known bug, i got rid of it last time but that gave more problems, so i put that bug in again until I get some more time to figure out a proper way to handle certain things.

dunno man, can't replicate it here. its working perfectly fine with k9. no one else has complained so far too.
[Android Apps and Games] ssfortes:
Same problem that DarrenCarnall, when I long press Monitored Apps to select a custom icon, not appears gallery or explorer... only the message "Select icon...", gallery application remains in background, if I press 'back' button, then gallery appears but icon selection don't work :mad:
